MSF4800S-30-0960-30X-30R application field and working principle

Introduction

Machine safety - light curtains are an integral part of machine safety systems that provide personnel and machinery protection from accidental or intentional injurious contact. The MSF4800-30-0960-30X-30R Light Curtain is a single-channel type 4 light curtain from Schmersal Safety Curtain Systems. This light curtain is suitable for creating safety zones up to 50m in size and meets the requirements of the highest safety standards. This article will discuss the application field and working principles of the MSF4800-30-0960-30X-30R light curtain.

Application Field

The MSF4800-30-0960-30X-30R Light Curtain is designed for use in applications where personnel and equipment need to be separated from hazards. Examples include factories, warehouses, manufacturing plants, robotics, and automated material handling systems. This light curtain is also suitable for creating monitoring or fencing zones with safety distances up to 50m and meets the required safety standards. Furthermore, it can be used in applications with minimum panel heights of 900mm which makes it versatile for most applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the MSF4800-30-0960-30X-30R Light Curtain is based on the transmission of a modulated infrared light beam. When the beam is broken, either by an object or a person, the signal is received by a receiver and triggers a safety-related shutdown of the machine or process if the detected interruption does not exceed the set safety distance.The light curtain is made up of two components, the transmitter and the receiver. The transmitter consists of an array of light-emitting diodes which emit a modulated infrared light beam. The receiver consists of an array of photocells which are sensitive to the infrared light and detect any interruptions in the light beam. The photocells are divided into several detection fields and can detect motion from small moving objects up to full body detection.The receiver is connected to the control unit which monitors the operation and safety of the machine and can initiate a shutdown if required. The safety distance is adjustable by programming of the control unit and verified by a series of safety tests which are conducted before the machine is put into service.

Conclusion

The MSF4800S-30-0960-30X-30R Light Curtain is a single channel type 4 light curtain from Schmersal Safety Curtain Systems. It is designed for applications where personnel and equipment need to be separated from hazards. The working principle of the light curtain is based on the transmission of a modulated infrared light beam which initiates a safety related shutdown of the machine or process if an object or a person interrupts the beam. The light curtain is adjustable and can be used for safety distances up to 50m and is suitable for applications with minimum panel heights of 900mm.
